Slate roofing
Natural slate, hooked or nailed, laid by hand: the roof of the region, for the life of the house.
- Starting price
- from €160 per m²
- Typical duration
- 2 to 4 weeks
A natural slate roof well laid outlives the people who ordered it. We lay it by hand, hooked or nailed depending on the house and the local style, and we repair existing slate roofs slate by slate.
What is included
- Survey of the slope and of the timber frame
- Natural slate, hooked or nailed, with matching ridge and valleys
- Zinc or lead flashings around chimneys and dormers
- Replacement of individual slates on existing roofs
- Scaffolding and removal of waste
Good to know
Not all slate is equal: thickness and origin make the difference over decades. The quote names the slate, its origin and its size, so you can compare like for like.
A single slipped slate lets water in within a winter. A yearly look after the storms costs little and saves a lot.
